St. Paul Mayoral Candidates to Gather for Forum on Wednesday
The city of St. Paul is gearing up for a significant event in the mayoral election, as all five candidates have agreed to participate in a forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters St. Paul. This event, scheduled to take place on Wednesday at Johnson Senior High School, will be the first time that Mayor Melvin Carter, Yan Chen, Adam Dullinger, state Rep. Kaohly Her, and Mike Hilborn will share the stage together. The forum aims to provide a platform for the candidates to discuss their visions and policies, giving voters a chance to make informed decisions.
Event Details and Livestream Information
The St. Paul Neighborhood Network will livestream the forum on its YouTube channel, making it accessible to a broader audience. Additionally, the network will replay the broadcast on its cable access channel multiple times on select future dates, ensuring that those who miss the live event can still stay informed. The forum is scheduled to take place from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at Johnson Senior High School, located at 1349 Arcade St., in the school’s auditorium, which can accommodate over 800 people.
Neutral Atmosphere and Ranked Choice Voting
To maintain a neutral atmosphere, the League of Women Voters has requested that attendees refrain from wearing partisan clothes, hats, or issue-related gear. Furthermore, FairVote Minnesota will be present at the event, manning a table in the foyer to remind voters about the election being ranked choice. This educational effort aims to ensure that voters understand the voting process and can make the most of their ballots. Each candidate will have the opportunity to deliver a two-minute opening and closing statement, as well as answer questions from the audience presented by a panel of facilitators.
Co-Sponsors and Community Engagement
The event is co-sponsored by six district councils representing the South East, Greater East Side, Dayton’s Bluff, Como, St. Anthony Park, and Union Park areas, demonstrating a strong commitment to community engagement and voter education. By bringing together all five mayoral candidates and providing a platform for them to engage with voters, this forum promises to be a pivotal moment in the St. Paul mayoral election.
